The Minister of Environment and Energy, Giorgos Stathakis, today signed the Joint Ministerial Decision announcing the “Household Savings II” program, which includes the implementation guide.

The new program provides funding for the implementation of interventions aimed at saving energy in the residential building sector, reducing energy consumption and consequently the energy costs of households, paying particular attention to low and middle income.

The resources available from the NSRF 2014-2020 amount to approximately EUR 250 million, while the total budget of the program, including private funds, is expected to reach EUR 500 million.

It is recalled that on Monday, the Hellenic Bank Association delivered the integrated information system, which will make the electronic submission of applications and the monitoring of their course for inclusion in the financed actions in order to facilitate the interested parties and to ensure transparency regarding the service of applications based on the absolute time series of submission.

The process of connecting the banks to the information system will start gradually from February 15 and is expected to be completed by the end of the month, when the submission of applications will begin.
